Chapter 430: Big Boss Pork Rong
Yunling Tea House.
It's about afternoon tea at half past three in the afternoon.
Fang Xing, Qiao Yinghong, and Guo Keda went to the teahouse at three o'clock, ordered a pot of tea first, and tasted it slowly.
It was almost half past three o'clock, and a loud voice came from downstairs, followed by the welcome of the teahouse owner.
Apparently this loud voice is a frequent visitor to the teahouse.
The loud voice went all the way from the downstairs lobby and up the stairs to the second floor.
"Just this one?"
Loud voice walked to the door of the private room, pointed to the inside of the private room, and glanced back at the teahouse owner who followed.
Fang Xing turned his head to look over, and thought it was "Xu Jiang" coming.
This big voice wears gold and silver, and looks very rich, as soon as he stepped into the private room, he walked towards Fang Xing, and stretched out his hands with a smile on his face: "Big star, big star...... Finally met the real person. ”
When Fang Xing saw him stepping into the door, he hurriedly stood up, and then his right hand was grabbed by the other party and shook it up and down.
This loud voice is obviously Tao Maorong, the big boss of Donghai's cold-chain meat products business.
Tao Maorong was very enthusiastic, holding Fang Xing's hand and looking up and down: "I can be regarded as seeing a real big star today." ”
After letting go of his hand, he took a step back, pulled back a little distance, looked up and down again, then pointed to his chest, and then pointed to Fang Xing, and said: "My daughter likes you very much, she plays your song every day when she closes the door, and she must take a picture with me later." ”
"Absolutely." Fang Xing didn't expect this to be the case.
This Tao Maorong's business can do so big, and in terms of communication, there is indeed something.
As soon as he came up, he took the initiative, as if the whole field was prepared for him.
This kind of personality is really suitable for doing business and making friends with anyone.
Tao Maorong turned around and greeted the owner of the teahouse: "Lao Hu, hurry up and put those delicious things in your house on the table, today I want to invite the big star to afternoon tea, you hurry up and give it to me." ”
"Okay!" The owner of the teahouse agreed, and hurried to the kitchen to make arrangements.
Listening to his communication with the owner of the tea house, he is obviously very familiar.
Fang Xing and the others naturally had a little curiosity in their hearts, but they didn't ask.
Tao Maorong took the initiative to answer the doubts of the three people: "I am very familiar with the boss here, and their meat is all supplied by me." Let me tell you, their crockpot soup is a must. Especially when the boss makes it himself, most people can't taste it. ”
Qiao Yinghong answered: "Then today is borrowing the light of Boss Tao." ”
"Hi, little things. If you come here to eat in the future, it's all mine. Tao Maorong patted his chest very generously.
On the right hand, three fingers are wearing rings, gold and jade, which look very rich.
In fact.
If you look at it from a fashion point of view, Tao Maorong's outfit of wearing gold and silver is actually a bit earthy.
However, in the eyes of ordinary people, Tao Maorong's image is a big boss.
This is also Tao Maorong's purpose, to let others know that he is a big boss, so that it is easy to talk about business.
Apparently.
Tao Maorong also felt that his outfit was very different from the style of Fang Xing.
He turned his index finger with a gold ring printed with the traditional character "hair", and said with a smile: "Big star, don't look at me like this, let me tell you, I was a literary and artistic young man when I was young......"
After the topic opened, Tao Maorong began to tell about his experience when he was young:
"More than 20 years ago, I was still running a trick in the film and television base, and at that time, one of my favorite movies was "God of Gamblers".
"My biggest dream is to be an actor, act in movies, and then watch my own movies in the cinema."
Speaking of this, he scratched his head and laughed: "I didn't expect that the leaders of the gang refused to ask me, so I had to go home and sell pork with the old man at home."
"Let me tell you, at that time, at two o'clock in the middle of the night, I was sleeping in a snakeskin bag above the pork stall in the market.
"I slept until three o'clock, and as soon as the truck delivered the pork arrived.
"We have to push the scooter to rob, yes, the word robbery is very vivid, of course, we have to count the money later.
"Half of the pork that was brought in.
"We call it a fan, and a fan of pork is half a pig.
"Dragged off the big truck, then pulled to the pork stall and cut.
"Ku Ding Jieniu, this idiom is very vivid, I am Jiepig, separate the ribs, lean meat, and fatty meat.
"It can't all be separated, and some customers have to buy the one with the skin.
"There are times when I can't rob others, and when I think about it during that time, I really remember it vividly.
"Later, I got my own car, and I also went to buy pork and deliver goods to a food stall on the street.
"Up to now, half of the meat in this entire area has been supplied by me."
Fang Xing listened very seriously.
Tao Maorong said these things, in fact, are not glamorous.
At two or three o'clock in the middle of the night, I have to sleep on the pork stall in the vegetable market, and as soon as the truck arrives, I have to wake up immediately and go to "grab" the pork.
In fact, if you imagine it a little, you can see how choking the smell is when you sleep on a pork stall.
However, Tao Maorong didn't seem to mind talking about these things before.
Maybe this is a self-made person who has worked hard, and never shies away from his hard life.
Only such tenacious people have a chance to succeed.
"Boss Tao can do such a big business, it's really amazing." Fang Xing gave a rare compliment.
Tao Maorong praised: "You don't know, I envy a big star like you the most, you look good and can sing."
"When I was young, the most popular ones were the Four Heavenly Kings of Hong Kong and Taiwan, and the dormitory was full of their posters.
"At that time, my biggest dream was to be a star, and future students will put up my posters.
"Big star, you say I look like this, do you still have a chance?"
Fang Xing didn't expect his dream to be so "simple", and said with a dumb smile: "It's not difficult to appear in the movie, let the students put up your posters, then you have to ask the students." ”
"Hahaha......"
Tao Maorong laughed, obviously he was just joking: "Let me tell you, it's really simple to make a movie when you have money."
"You don't know, there are many film and television companies that ask me for investment, and I say I want to make a movie, and they say yes, and they say I can be the protagonist.
"Do you think it's possible for me to be the leading actor in a movie?"
Fang Xing smiled and replied, "It's okay to pat and play." ”
Tao Maorong slapped his thigh and asked, "Then if I say that I want to play the leading role in your movie, can you agree?" ”
Fang Xing shook his head and replied, "No." ”
"Is the refusal so direct?" Tao Maorong suddenly straightened his face.
"If Boss Tao wants to play the leading role in a movie, some film and television companies are willing." Fang Xing spread his hands.
Tao Maorong slapped his thigh again and laughed: "I like a straightforward person like you, if I want to play the leading role in a movie, I am willing to shoot my film and television company, and I can line up from here to the third alley."
"However, I never invest in those companies, and it would be boring to make movies to amuse myself."
Fang Xing saw that his personality was quite easy to get along with, and answered: "It's impossible to play the leading actor." However, cameo roles are not much of a problem. ”
Tao Maorong was a little surprised and asked, "Do you have any lines?" ”
"Yes."
In fact, Fang Xing thinks that his image is actually quite suitable for playing a nouveau riche, that is, the kind of character who smokes cigars, wears gold rings on his hands, hangs a big gold chain around his neck, and shows off a few lines, which is quite vivid.
"I like this, and I've made up your friend. If you have such a trick in the future, you must come to me. That's it, no matter how much investment you want, I'll invest. Tao Maorong suddenly became happy.
Have a good chat, drink tea, and eat snacks.
Before I knew it, more than an hour had passed.
"I'm very happy today, it's almost time for dinner, so I don't want to change places, just eat dinner here, how about it?" Tao Maorong was very interested, and he pulled Fang Xing to prepare to eat dinner together.
In fact, I eat and drink all the time in afternoon tea, but I am not hungry at all, and I can eat dinner or not.
Fang Xing looked at the time and said, "Time may not be enough, let's do it another day." ”
Tao Maorong picked up a tissue to wipe his mouth and said, "Today, I dragged you to talk so much about what you have, and I didn't say anything serious." ”
He doesn't think that a star who often appears on TV can just ask him for tea.
We talked for almost two hours.
Fang Xing just chatted with him, and didn't mention anything else at all.
The reason for this.
Fang Xing also felt that his experience when he was young was very real, and that was the real life of ordinary people.
So if you are willing to listen to him, you should talk about the past.
"Actually, it's not serious, just make friends." Fang Xing felt that there was not enough time to talk about business, so it was better to leave it like this.
As for the casting of the crew, Wang Kai is not the only one who can act.
Tao Maorong pulled Fang Xing and didn't let him go, and said, "If you really make friends, you can't just forget it." I thought to myself, I'm a meat company, and I don't have a good relationship with celebrities.
"The only possibility that you can find me is that you have invested in an entertainment company before.
"Did you say it was because of the Fireworks Media matter?"
Qiao Yinghong saw that the topic had been raised, so she continued: "There is indeed such a thing. Actually, the thing is very simple, we have a new drama to film, and we originally found an actor from Hanabi.
"Your director is a bit over-thinking, though......
"I'm not provoking, that's pretty much what happened anyway.
"Boss Tao is very easy to talk to, but business is business, of course it is good to be able to cooperate, and you can be friends if you can't cooperate."
Tao Maorong frowned and said: "I don't care about the operation of Huahuo Media, that is, the company's finances are checked once a quarter. ”
After listening to his words, Qiao Yinghong nodded and said, "Then we understand, it's nice to know Boss Tao." ”
Although Tao Maorong usually doesn't care about the affairs of Huahuo Media, it is impossible to be stupid if the business can reach his level.
Therefore, when Qiao Yinghong contacted him as an Ark Culture, he had already asked someone to ask about Fireworks Media.
Therefore, he actually knew this matter in his heart.
It's just that after he said the sentence "I don't care about the management of Fireworks Media", Fang Xing had already decided to change actors.
Qiao Yinghong naturally understood what Fang Xing meant, so she said this: "Then we will understand." ”
After finishing speaking, Fang Xing and the others prepared to say goodbye and leave.
Tao Maorong stubbornly pulled and didn't let him go: "Don't mind, let's talk again." Listen to what you mean, is the cooperation in the soup? ”
Qiao Yinghong frowned and wondered, "Didn't Boss Tao care about the operation of Huahuo Media?" Whether we cooperate or not, we can only go to Director Liu to talk. ”
"Hey!"
Tao Maorong patted his thigh and said, "Liu Shijie has a lot of ideas, and I know it. Do business, don't think a little bit, how to do business?
"I invested in Huahuo Media, not because I fancy him as a person, but because I want to have some side hustles.
"I listen to what you mean, do you have an opinion about Liu Shijie?"
Qiao Yinghong said with a big haha: "Boss Tao, don't think about it, we just want to meet the big boss behind the scenes of Huahuo Media, there is really nothing else." ”
Find the boss of the company and talk about the small report of the general manager of the company.
This kind of sowing discord is usually boring for itself.
The boss of another company, let the general manager manage the company, which means that the relationship is very good, maybe there is a relationship with relatives.
Therefore, Qiao Yinghong is very careful not to talk about Liu Shijie.
Boss Tao waved his hand and said, "It's okay, you say, you say." Does Liu Shijie want to cooperate with Pengcheng Capital? ”
"This is an internal matter of your company." Qiao Yinghong smiled awkwardly.
"Then what Pengcheng Capital is about to go bankrupt, how can this kind of company that puts the word decay on top of it cooperate? I just like your Ark culture. Tao Maorong did not speak tactfully at all, and his style of doing things was very consistent with the "hair" ring on his finger.
"What does Boss Tao mean?" Qiao Yinghong was a little messy.
"Which actor do you want to fire, use it casually, give the money as you like, I just want to watch the TV series you made." Tao Maorong spoke very directly.
"Isn't Liu Shijie in charge of the operation of Huahuo Media?" Qiao Yinghong frowned and asked.
"The company is mine, I have the final say. You say, how to cooperate? You can invest as much as you want. Tao Maorong looked very wealthy.
He looks like this, he looks very much like the kind of nouveau riche who is pulled by the entertainment industry to invest and cheat money.
More than ten years ago, when the domestic film and television industry was just starting.
Many small companies in the film and television industry rely on this kind of nouveau riche investors who don't know how to do it.
However, from the chat with him just now.
Fang Xing knew very well that this Tao Maorong was not stupid.
It is true that many film and television companies have asked him for investment, and even agreed to let him play the leading role, but he has not invested in any film and television dramas.
Fang Xing was a little curious and asked, "Boss Tao, will you have an unpleasant quarrel with Liu Shijie if you do this?" ”
Tao Maorong smiled and said, "You also said, Liu Shijie has a lot of ideas, do you think he is the kind of person who is willing to manage the company for me all the time?" ”
When he said this, his eyes were full of shrewdness.
This sentence has already shown that he has long seen Liu Shijie clearly.
Liu Shijie does have some ability, but it is impossible to work for people all the time, and after having the capital, he will definitely stand on his own.
When the time comes, taking away the fireworks artist and the project may happen.
Fang Xing understood what he meant, and asked, "Then Boss Tao is preparing to find a new professional manager?" ”
"It's okay, I don't know this business, I don't plan to make money with this, it's just that I'm interested, just do it casually." Tao Maorong said it very casually, but he asked the company's finances to take stock every quarter, and he was obviously not a good person.
Fang Xing thought for a moment and proposed a plan: "Otherwise, let's do it." I acquired Huahuo Media, and if Boss Tao is interested in the film and television industry, they can work together. ”
"Acquisition ......"
Tao Maorong didn't expect this at first, was surprised, and said: "It's not impossible, this thing can be done, but we have to make an appointment another day." ”
Obviously, this plan was not in his original idea, but he did not reject this plan, so he wanted to go back and think about it before deciding.
